Ingredients
Scale
For the Chicken:
- 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
For the Vegetables:
- 1 cup bell peppers, sliced (mixed colors)
- 1 cup broccoli florets
Instructions
- 1. Prepare Your Chicken
- Cut the boneless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces for even cooking and maximum flavor absorption.
- 2. Marinate the Chicken
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and black pepper. Add the chicken pieces and marinate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for better flavor).
- 3. Sauté Your Veggies
- While the chicken marinates, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced bell peppers and broccoli florets; sauté until slightly tender but still crisp, about 5 minutes.
- 4. Cook the Chicken
- Add the marinated chicken to the skillet with veggies. Sauté everything together until the chicken is fully cooked and lightly caramelized, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- 5. Final Touches
- Once cooked through, sprinkle with additional freshly ground black pepper to enhance flavor.
- 6. Serve It Up
- Transfer to plates or a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired.
